Abstract
SARS‐CoV‐2, responsible for CoViD‐19, is a new virus that can infect different cellular lines, including endothelia and epithelial cells of the gastrointestinal tract mucosa. At this level, the virus can cause different types of direct damage, even in paucisymptomatic, young patients. Virus can be detected directly with immunohistochemistry techinques.Keywords
